Scientific Communication and Visualisation

COMMUNICATION

We help you to communicate complex ideas. This could be for dissemination of research outcomes, teaching,
engaging an audience with a web site or video or otherwise to help your audience to understand complex concepts.

VISUALISATION

Using 3D models, images and animations we open the doors to arenas not normally seen. Allowing the audience access to the molecular environment,
microbial interactions, organ functions and so on. We also work with data to provide infographics to display results and conclusions in new and engaging ways.

Services

MODELLING & ANIMATION

We build 3D models and make images or animations, from molecules to fuel cells. For more examples of our images see the image gallery.

INFOGRAPHICS

Enhance the impact of your data using 3D diagrams and charts with animations. These can often also be animated.

3D PRINTING

Turn your science 3 dimentional and finally get to hold the protein that you have been working on in your hand.

WEB SITES & APPS

We build interactive websites and apps such as the online organic chemistry resource
Synthesis Explorer, originally created for the RSC.

VIDEOS

LARGE FORMAT & INTERACTIVE

Set a scene or adapt a space to be an imersive environment, utilising projection and large screen installations.

Images

We create images for journal covers, websites etc. Here are samples.

Monoclonal antibodies

p-orbital represent­ation

Norovirus

Caffeine

"Polymer" journal cover

Functional­ised Carbon Nanotube

Plant cell

Image for Macrogenics web site

Genetic testing book cover

All we need are details about your research and we can begin to build your images.

Example Projects

BLOODLINESScience-Music-Dance

We helped to shape the look of this unique performance piece by working closely with the team of performers, medics, musicians and stage tech.
This unusual blend of audio/visual communication, a show about leaukaemia, includes music made from data, filmed scenes and 3D rendered imagery. It is currently still on tour and
enjoying marvelous audience reaction.

WAKE UP & SMELL THE COFFEEA fulldome film

Aimed at AS/A-Level biologists but enjoyed by all adults, this animated full dome film has unusual content for a planetarium.
We worked closely with A-Level teachers and examiners to align the film with the A-level sylabus.
The major challenge with this project was making content for a dome shaped screen and we build a strong relationship with INTECH
who enabled us to test content during the development of the project.

Available up to 3600×3600 dome masters with script, promo-poster layout and postcard stills from the film.
Other formats & resolutions are available on request.

A-Level Science ResourcesAn effective use of YouTube

We created a series of animated Biology and Chemistry resources for the University of Surrey
to help foundation year and mature students get back up-to-speed with fundamental A-level concepts that they would need in their degree courses.

These animations currently occupy six of the
top ten most watched videos on the University of Surrey's YouTube channel, account for less than 2% of their total channel content and yet are responsible for
~24% of their total views.

By creating relevant content that people actually want to watch we can maximise traffic to your website.
